Maryland redshirt junior quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa has dealt with a whirlwind of emotions over the past 48 hours. On Thursday night, he watched his older brother Tua suffer a frightening head injury during the Miami Dolphins’ game against the Cincinnati Bengals and be taken off the field on a stretcher.

As Maryland football coach Mike Locksley considered the impact the scary scene had on his young quarterback, a simple FaceTime call between the brothers changed everything. “Tua basically said, ‘Hey, I’m fine and go play. I’m looking forward to seeing you go play and win the game,’” Locksley said.

1 Crime & Safety Thursday marked the 40th anniversary of a series of poisoning deaths that changed the way over-the-counter products are packaged. Eric DeGrechie , Patch Staff Posted | Updated Reply ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, IL — Forty years ago this week, the nation was gripped with fear. During a three-day span from Sept. 29 through Oct. 1, 1982, what would become known as the Chicago Tylenol murders were tragically playing out across the suburbs of Chicago.

WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — When Michael Moore was released from prison after serving time for selling drugs, he realized that it was time to make a change in his life. With the help and guidance of the Delaware Center for Horticulture, Moore enrolled in a post-release program in public landscaping, which included job training for gardening, park maintenance and basic knowledge of planting. He completed the program in 2014. “I was encouraged to apply and I gave it a shot,” said Moore, who was approached about the program following his four-year prison term. “I ended up getting hired on their staff after the program because I was willing to learn.” The program helped him stay grounded, said Moore, who recently got pardoned for all of his charges with the help of the organization. The Branches to Chances Program provides classroom and hands-on training through professional development in the horticulture and landscape industry.

As the park marks the 160th anniversary of the battle this weekend, they’re focusing on showing visitors a more comprehensive account.
